Any ideas on how hard it is to get a dohc engine legally registered in Victoria.I understand that a g180 engine should be able to be registered without any hassle what about a g200 ? Should it matter if the head is dohc or sohc?
I have heard that you need unleaded fuel and fuel filler on the car and a cat converter.

yes you are supposed to have an unleaded fuel filler neck on a car with a cat converter. Mine dosn't but i think that the imported cars back then didn't bother with it cause my mum managed to stick leaded in the tank when i was away on holidays...

does leaded ruin a cat? i heard it does...

Yeah, leaded wrecks cats, part of the reason why it's illegal to put leaded in a car with a cat.
